After twenty years, Microsoft has finally (thankfully) announced plans to phase out its Internet Explorer browser, notoriously infamous for being, well, just plain bad. While Internet Explorer will be no more, it will live on for years to come through several classic Internet memes. To celebrate (er, commemorate), here are twenty of the best IE memes from around the web as shared by Twitter and Instagram, one for every year of its life.
R.I.P. Internet Explorer, 1995-2015.
